What is the purpose of the Selective Service System?

  1. Tax collection

  2. Voter registration

  3. Military conscription

  4. Census counting

The correct answer is: Military conscription

The Selective Service System is responsible for maintaining information on those who may be eligible for military conscription in the event of a national crisis. This system does not collect taxes (option A), handle voter registration (option B), or conduct census counts (option D). Its main purpose is to have a pool of potential candidates in case the country needs to activate a draft.
